NEW YORK � July 20, 2008 �TelevisionWithoutPity.com, Bravo's popular website for TV junkies, will unveil The Tubey Awards, a unique opportunity for TV junkies to choose the best, worst, most improved and just plain weird characters, series, moments and more from the 2007-2008 television season. The Tubey Awards are aimed at viewers who love TV when it's good � but love to hate it even more when it's bad.

Starting today, fans can vote for 60 categories online on TelevisionWithoutPity.com. New categories and nominees will be unveiled weekly through August 31 and fans will have one week to cast their votes before the next set of categories are revealed. Winners will be announced in mid-September.

"The Tubey Awards were created as a tongue-in-cheek outlet for true TV lovers and are meant to reflect what fans consider worthy (or not) of recognition," said Katsunuma. "The awards serve as the platform for recognizing all of the good, bad, and ugly that television has to offer."
